Voyager 1 is now 21 light hours from the Sun. In less than 6 years, it will be our first spacecraft to venture more than a light day away. Here is a pannable simulation of our solar system's hyperbolic spacecraft. orbitsimulator.com/gravitySimulat…

A visual look at two possible orbits for Planet Nine—one based on Mike Brown does not X & @kb4batygin’s model, the other inspired by a recent IRAS/AKARI paper (arXiv:2504.17288) by Takao Nakagawa, Amos Chen, Tetsuya Hashimoto, Simon Ho, and Seong-Jin Kim.

If Planet 9 exists at ~600 AU, its motion against the sky is primarily parallax caused by Earth's motion. The slow crawl towards the left of the screen is from Planet 9's orbital motion. Each loop is 1 year. The grid marks are spaced 1 degree apart.
